RE: Home Sweet Home
I do. I have done most of my hunting on the same property since I first started and roamed the woods for years before that.I may not know every tree and bush, but I know when a storm has changed something, where I can best expect game to be and where to look if it's not there. I can pace off the places where I took one deer to another and know when every mast crop and feed is available. Maybe not to the degree it is to the animals themselves but it IS home to me.
One of the things that has kept me from packing up and moving to a new state is the thought that I would miss the feeling of being "home" there on our property where I spend almost every weekend and/or hunting season I can. I've beenwalking and exploring those woods since I was 8 years old and I DO feel it as home morethan anywhere else, even compared to theplace I liveor the house I grew up in.
